Forced heirship, the requirement that you leave all or some of your property to your spouse and/or children, is a great concern for ex-pats. In the U.S. you can generally leave your estate to whomever you wish. That may not be true under foreign laws. Which country's laws govern your estate can make a huge difference.

As always good advice and timely planning is the answer.
